Crazy market. Sales of $200 and less per sq ft and sales of more than $500 a sq ft. And some of the properties are pretty close to each other. Note the massive price difference between 2340 and 2672 Alpenglow. An extra $135K for an extra nearly 4,000 sq ft a couple hundred yards away?

And we need more housing Steamboat 700 I THINK NOT
Again, my unanswered question: Where will aa these new residents work??
Show me ONE home that you can buy with ANY of the advertised jobs in our Today paper.

Justice4all,
New residents do not have to work for jobs advertised in the paper. How many jobs and local businesses make enough money to justify all of the expensive housing already here? Is Dakota Ridge a who's who of local business leaders, doctors and lawyers or dominated by rich people that moved there?

A person able to work anywhere or someone that no longer needs to work is able to chose a nice place like SB and does not worry about the local job market. The driving force in the local housing market has not been locally employed workers for decades.

Which is the fundamental lie of SB 700's ads for local housing. It will be providing minimal, if any, housing for local working stiffs. It will be providing housing for people that were considering Vail Valley, or next to some lake or golf course.

And, of course, this great recession has hurt a lot of people that thought they were just about able to live here. And a bunch that are here are now financially stressed.
